EV, PV and house battery + Octopus 🐙 Flux. The occasional thoughtful tweet but mainly me moaning about customer service (sorry)

@ecocars1 @KateFantom @TimsTravels01 @tillathenun @PoletoPoleEV @wire_brigade @ukevowners @EVPuzzle @eV_Newt @106Euan Crazy it is over two year old hardware at time of install.

@colinwalker79 Should that have been VW and not Tesla in the Vw group?

Today's Poll: If you have an electric vehicle (EV), how do you find the experience compared to driving a fuel (petrol/diesel) based one?

@leewoodman @g__j @OctopusEnergy Fingers crossed Greg can work his magic - it’s the perfect partnership

[Ben Sims @SimsBSims]

@InstaVoltUK Great to see this facility live so quickly. But why did you make her hold the charger like it’s a petrol pump 🤦?

@OctopusEnergy hi, I DM’d you as my octopus home mini needs a little poke to work I think?

[Ben Sims @SimsBSims]

@OctopusEnergy Thank you - done

[Ben Sims @SimsBSims]

@OctopusEnergy hi! are you able to move my octopus mini from my old house to my new house?

[Ben Sims @SimsBSims]

@greenstripshow @Tesla @UKVolkswagen £90 is steep but it is essentially a data sim for your car. £30 a year would seem pretty fair to me.

@MarkEvans1967 Ah sorry yes! Was thinking more Cornwall!

[Ben Sims @SimsBSims]

@MarkEvans1967 Other than the massive hub at Exeter?

[Ben Sims @SimsBSims]

@OctopusEnergy Thank you

@OctopusEnergy morning! Is everything ok with my smart gas meter as it seems to have stopped reporting this week?

[Isobel Yeo @isobelyeo]

Really great two days hosting the @SubseaCables Cable Awareness Workshop at @NOCnews. I think everybody learned a lot and I got to touch some of the most broken bits of cable I’ve ever seen. Props to @MikeAClare for doing all the work and giving me half the credit.

@HullTeslaModel3 @A_MrBenMitchell Ah yes the old Bretagne - lovely below car deck cabins that stank of car fumes!

@HullTeslaModel3 @A_MrBenMitchell The name matches the destination but they say elsewhere it will be running the Portsmouth st malo route

[Ben Sims @SimsBSims]

@HullTeslaModel3 @A_MrBenMitchell Isn’t the st Malo route on a brand new ferry so improved cabins?

@LBofBromley hi, how can I chase up my order for recycling containers please? I ordered them two weeks ago but nothing has arrived yet.

[Ben Sims @SimsBSims]

@OctopusEnergy just replied to you Luke. Thanks
